E58rThe chapters in this book bring together a wide variety of methods that are applied to exploring what happens in classrooms. In some cases the research activity takes place within the classroom; in others, the research activity is remote from the regular activity of the classroom. The chapters describe the use of interviews, conversations, observation, and questionnaires as means of gathering data. Some chapters describe approaches that aim at minimal disturbance of regular classrooms, while others describe intervention approaches that focus on changing the teachers' strategies or the design of the teaching and learning program. The chapters include examples of the use of both qualitative and quantitative methods. [p.xii, ed].
